My current treatment started when I was 33 and I'll be having jaw surgery next month. Fun times.

I got mine two weeks ago at age 33, just on my top teeth to start. I will eventually have to get an extraction of one bottom tooth, thankfully I got all my wisdom teeth out three years ago

I got mine about seven hours ago, at age 36. (Which I still am.)

So far, I absolutely hate them. Difficult to see the light at the end of the 20-month tunnel right now.
